Quote from Panther

If I'm being honest, saying that a vote is required on something that has always been an automatic approval (given the requirements are met) is something that Robin or Ivan would have done.

agreed.

i’ve not voted because i don’t think there should be one. declan has had some really private issues irl and I’m personally confident it wasn’t a ragequit in the traditional sense. i believe Yurni’s ban had a factor in the resignation but i’m confident that it wasn’t a proper ragequit.

Also, for the people objecting for Luke’s reasons - just want to put it out there that Luke didn’t actually vote

can confirm am luke

to make it clear there’s no vote from me

Quote from uvb

quite fascinating how he's not banned yet Yurni is.

he is?

Quote from Alco_Rs11

I also feel the *EAO* shouldn't be the one to determine if a ban is sufficent or not given that is not their area of influence.

i do. This suggestion is for if the EBM is taking too long to make a verdict. therefore why would we go to the EBM, isn’t that just a LBR?

I’m suggesting we give admins the ability to LBR people up to a week using /tempban.

I’m saying this because right now we’ve had a few instances where people have been able to rejoin despite being pedophiles/predators because ‘policy is policy’. I will also make abundantly clear that nobody has supported this user staying but admins were too scared to take proper action out of fear of the consequence.

Therefore in exceptional circumstances admins should have the ability to LBR people from in game. The circumstances being:

- Active threat to the playerbase in the context of doxxing, grooming or sexual misconduct

- Alt of an already LBR’d player

- Anything else deemed exceptional by the EAO

The consequence for misusing this should be perm removal.

I’m sort of not willing to unban from Discord. However there are conditions to this

If Ginlang is approved for release from the server the Discord ban will remain for another month. If Ginlang is denied, I’m willing to unban. I’m willing to give a second chance, but given straight after the ban Ginlang and his friends made alts that were raiding/being dickheads.

Therefore I’m okay with Ginlang returning to one or the other but not both quite yet

but… why? you were clearly unhappy as admin and you’ve not exactly shown thrill to even be on TF quite a lot recently, you’ve spoke about just leaving permanently

i must just ask - this has nothing to do with rex returning in less than a week right?

even if aero did put it in a retarded way this isn’t a vote so i’m not gonna say yes/no (even if aero did vote literally straight after saying you cant..)

Quote from Gommeh

vouch for release from Discord ban after a month

Discord bans work a bit differently you don’t get unbanned unless you appeal

I’m not comfortable with allowing you to come back at all to be frank you violated TOS and i don’t see why we should excuse that

i’m setting an appeal date for two reasons: one in case time changes my mind, i wanna be firm but not a dick but also because i’m not allowed to make unappealable bans

i’m afraid i can’t approve this given you posted copyrighted content.

i’m obliged by procedure to set an appeal time of a month.

i’ll leave this open if there’s any exceptional reason I should approve this but for now it’s a no

I’m probably not meant to do this but given how quack, the banning admin has denied the appeal, given the fact that this thread probably won’t go anywhere good i’m locking it

apologies to the forum staff if i’m not meant to

caleb i’d call you a loser but honestly that’d be wrong cuz you’re never losing your virginity

The same what

Didn’t it get raided by your friends?

a human being with no traces of ai

no

You can reappeal in a week. you got banned prior to clarification on the NSFW stuff but i still warned you not to and you continued to do it.

i am replying to my own thread just for one to get the ball rolling but also i think it’d be good to make clear

every decision executives make is for a reason. there has not been a time i’ve seen where an exec has done something just for the sake of doing it. i don’t think this is always communicated very well with the wider community.

Hi all,

My last thread detailed the problems I have with TF. This thread is intended as an open discussion on how to fix these issues. What I don’t wish to do is to bitch and not fix anything, because then I’d literally be the issue I described in the thread

In this thread I’m separating myself from management. I will be talking about management as if I’m not a part of it (aside from stuff that directly relates to me). I’m doing this so I can try and serve as a middle-man, a neutral party that can try and fix some big underlying issues with TF.

I aim to do this to break the current gap I’m seeing between management and the wider TF community. Right now there seems to be some mutual resentment; the community don’t seem to understand quite what management is doing or why it is/isn’t doing certain things and management seem to be quite unmotivated due to overall negativity and discontent with the state of the server.

I’ve observed quite a lot of chat both on TF and outside to se what the true and genuine consensus is, and I think a very big issue right now is communication.

So I’m going to ask the community, what would you like management to do better? This isn’t a place for suggestions related to the actual server, e.g. ‘Upgrade to 1.19’ but rather a place for how to fix this gap between management and the community.

I’m gonna also ask that management either hold off on giving a definitive answer (within reason) to what people here suggest. I’d also like to ask that nobody acts uncivil. We can all improve, so lets focus on improvement instead of attacking.

If you have a comment and you wish to remain anonymous, please DM me on Discord. I am @phrman if you are banned/not on TF.
